Pepsi commercials that have been around since the Super Bowl about the iTunes music giveaway featured a Green Day cover of "I Fought the Law (and the Law Won)" I used one of my iTunes Pepsi caps to get the song, actually.

Anyway, it got me thinking about Green Day and how much I like the band. And it got me thinking about how Warning was their last real album, how both International Superhits! and Shenanigans were just rereleases and compiliation albums, and how Green Day seems to have fallen off of the face of the earth.

Basically, I was trying to find out if this new cover was actually new, or dredged up from some other album that somehow slipped through my fingers. Well, it's new, and it's not the only thing that's new. Green Day will be releasing their first new album in four years sometime in 2004. This makes me happy.

Time of your life is just one of those sappy high school graduation songs that everyone finds so sentimental like "I will remember you" by Sarah McLaughlan......

anyhow, i personally dont think that time of your life encompasses exactly who greenday is. Granted that they have changed since their early days but i think that the Dookie album is really them with out any commercialized pop shit.

Anyone going to see green day tonight?? Or at least i think its tonight.....i was told they were pretty good on the blink/green day tour, although alot of people i talked to said touring with blink was a big mistake.....(too many 12 year old girls with pink Blink 182 shirt on) or something to that effect.

Blink's still around? What the hell happened to those guys? I know they had an album come out in the past year or so, but from what I heard it sucked. Not to mention the quality of their shows just got crappy...at least from the last one I went to anyway. That's a damn shame. They were pretty funny at one point in time.

Actually, joe got the new blink album for christmas last year....it wasnt that horrible.....wasnt that great either.....it was a bit darker than what blink has usually done. I dont like them just for the fact they promote things they arent into.....like drinking....their bassist doesnt drink, and verbally makes it known, but yet it gets painted as something cool to 14 year old kids

Back to Green Day. Anyone hear their new single, "Boulevard of Broken Dreams"? It sounds like Billy Joe's voice grafted onto an Avril Lavigne song! I was really pissed. After over 10 years of genre-defining, fun, self-styled music, they've lowered themselves to become trend-following clones just to make an extra buck.

Or not. Maybe, like most bands, they're just experimenting with their sound. But I'd rather they go off on their own tangent instead of mimicking a Canadian raccoon.
